The Cock on the Steeple.

Why should cocks figure on the tops of
steeplcs? Christians connect the custom
with the reproach the cock once conveyed
to ST. Peter. But the cock used to be
placed on tie tops of sacred trees long
stceples, and in North Germany it still
stands upon the may poles. 1t was partly
watchman and partly a weather
prophet, and by its Growing it could dis
perse evil spirits and all approaching
calamities. Its life was sacred in India
and Persia and Cicero speaks of the an
clients regarding the killing of cock
as crime equal in blackness to the
sutfocation of a father. Our weather
cocks are doubtless the survival OF these
old ideas.

Chronic Tendency ovsrc. ma.

Many persons are troubled with a
chronic tendency To constipation. They
are of bilious lemperament. The com
plant to which they are subject, though
easily remediable by judieious treatment,
is in many cases aggravated by resort
to drastic purgatives ard cholagogues
AS the human stomach and bowels are
lined with delicate membrane, and not
with vulcanite, they cannot stand pros
longed drenchlng with such medicines
without serious injury. Nothing restores
and counteracts an, babitual tendency TO
constipation so eifeetually as Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Its laxative effect is
gentle and progressive. 1t neither COB
vulses noI weakeus the intestines, and its
effects are unacc0mpanied by gripping
pains. 1t arouses ,the liver when the
organ is sluggish, promotes digestion,
and encourages appetite and sleep. Foi
fever and agae, kidney troubles, ner
vous complaints and incipient rheuma
tism, it is incompatible. Take wine
glass before meals ard see how soon you
will relish them.
